Operating Systems AIX HMC in VmWare NIC sl0 issue. Post 302950605 by MichaelFelt on Monday 27th of July 2015 05:42:41 AM

Depending on the POWER system you are trying to manage (nothing older than POWER6!) your problems may have to do with:
a) the age of the HMC code you are trying to run in VMware environment - Now I'm working on the HMC 7.3.3.0 ServPack:0 base_version:20080402.1
b) HMC code (of that era) has no support from IBM for working under VMware. If it works - you are a lucky person.

So, please verify the systems you are trying to manage are old enough AND their firmware is old enough (the proper steps for updating firmware still has "Update HMC" as step #1)
